Shit. My comments on a sports forum yet again ordained the outcome.

I promise to be better.

But factually, they did win the game before after I committed to pessimism.

Therefore, we're doomed. This team sucks. They'll get destroyed week in and week out.

I got curious about something and decided to look it up on Baseball Reference. Our average attendance last year was 31,272 per game. This year we're averaging 31,243 per game. Now I wanna be fair, our average attendance through 5/18 is larger than it was last year. Through 24 games we've seen 80,000 more fans at the ballpark and the average per game is up by 3,000. But after winning the first World Series in franchise history and first championship in DFW since the Mavs won in 2011 you'd think the average attendance would be up by a lot rather than flat. Arizona is seeing an explosion of fan attendance. Through 5/18 they've welcomed 255,000 more fans through the same number of games as last season.

I'd imagine that's about to tick up fairly high with school letting out.  And let's not forget that the Rangers are competing with entertainment dollars against 2 local teams in the Conference Finals in their respective leagues.  I'd say that's a huge sign of good faith by the fans.

Rangers making LHPs look like Cy Young candidates much of the year. Now facing an LHP actual Cy Young candidate.

Grossman, it's time to do something, anything, Mr. Lefty Specialist.

Hill with good RR numbers. He can't be worse than what we've been doing lately.

Gray left with groin tightness. Not that it matters. Bats are playing tighter than anything.

Dunning activated tomorrow.

Outside of 40-20 and the playoffs, Rangers are mediocre as fuck. Now moving toward less than mediocre.

But oh those playoffs. Good times.
